Frommer's Adventure Guides: Southeast Asia

A handy guide if you're interested in travel around the Southeast Asia region, particularly if you're undecided about your destination. Travel destinations are broken down by country and city, as well as "best-of" categories (eg., best resorts, best festivals, best markets). Beautiful color photographs in the front and back of the book. The hotel and restaurant guides are the excellent; they are categorized by budget and the recommended places are highlighted, with comprehensive descriptions.As with any guidebook, be aware that some of the information may be incorrect or outdated. Took the book with me to Vietnam and found that some of the locations mentioned were closed (even though the book was published this year) and addresses incorrect. Also, a reference guide for health problems (including symptoms & possible illnesses) would have been helpful, in case you get sick. The Lonely Planet does a much better job in this category.Would still recommend this book, particularly if you plan to travel to more than one country in SE Asia, and want to explore the best of the region.
